The 2027 Hyundai Elantra has been officially revealed in South Korea under its home-market name, Hyundai Avante. The new sedan received one of the boldest redesigns in its history, combining sharp exterior lines, futuristic lighting and a more advanced interior. For drivers who love modern sedans, this model looks like a strong future option for daily driving, city routes and comfortable travel.
A sharper and more futuristic Elantra
Hyundai presented the new Avante at the 2026 Busan Auto Show, showing a design that feels more angular and high-tech than the current Elantra. The front end now has a more aggressive shape, thin vertical lighting elements and a cleaner, more futuristic look. This redesign gives the sedan a stronger road presence, making it especially attractive for those who want a stylish car for a trip around Baku or a comfortable daily drive.
New proportions and cleaner body lines
The side profile has also changed. Hyundai moved away from the older Z-shaped body creases and replaced them with straighter, cleaner lines. The new fenders, black B-pillar trim and star-shaped wheels give the 2027 Elantra a more premium and dynamic appearance. For customers searching for car rental in Baku, sedans like the Elantra remain a practical choice because they combine economy, comfort and modern design.
Interior: bigger screen, fewer buttons and smarter software
Inside, the new Elantra gets a noticeably updated cabin. The infotainment screen is larger, while the instrument cluster has become smaller and slimmer. Hyundai also added its new Pleos Connect system with an AI chatbot called Gleo. The gear selector is now placed behind the steering wheel, opening up more storage space in the center console.
Even with the modern digital layout, Hyundai kept physical controls for important media and climate functions. This is a smart decision because many drivers still prefer real buttons for quick use during a city drive or long-distance travel.
Gasoline and hybrid versions
The 2027 Hyundai Elantra is expected to offer both gasoline and hybrid powertrains. The gasoline version uses a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 147 horsepower, while the hybrid version receives a new two-motor 1.6-liter setup producing 155 horsepower. This makes the Elantra a practical sedan for fuel efficiency, daily use and business-class mobility.
